I never thought I could fix the dead keys myself, so I left the keyboard in my closet for about 3 years.. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

OMG TYSM!! about 2 yrs ago i spilled something on my keyboard and some of the keys stopped working. i managed to get a most of them working again, but there were still a couple that didn't. 1 of those was a key i use all the time. i was about to retire the keyboard and get a new 1, but i thought I'd try 1 last time to see if i could fix it. that's wen i stumbled upon ur vid and now ALL my keys work!!! i almost cried bc its been so long since I've been able to play and hear the songs i play in their entirety and without missing notes in between. tysm again
I'm so happy for you!! My pleasure :)
Unbelievable!!! Thank you!🙌🏾
Thank you!! This middle F has been annoying me. Its really important because its in the middle. Now, I can play without stress.
Have you tried it? Did it work? I would love to hear if it works 🤩
@@turnoffreality5333 Yes it did! Thank you!!!
YOU SAVED ME FROM MY SCHOOL!! OMG THANKSSSSS YOU!!!

YO!! THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU SAVED MY SANITY AND MONEY!! This is not the firat time i opened my keyboard, iv done so before to clean it oit from the dust but when i turned it on i found out a bunch of the keys where dead, so i opened it again to clean it properly but it still didnt work, i was devastated, i thought this was the end of my keyboard an di stowed it away for 3 months, but i later decidrd to find a solution, i was skeptical at first abt the pencil but ig that makes sense, and now they all work perfectly!!! Tysm you saved me, and for anyone worried abt this way it sure does work :D
Hello, @turnoffreality would this work on a RockJam5061 keyboard if the middle C key is not working
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!! I had 3 keys that were not working!
BROOOO YOU REALLY SAVE ME FROM MY MOM!!!!!!! I SALUTE YOUU
Thank you bro💛
Great vid man trick winth a pencil worked form me, didnt knew it might work like that good job
My pleasure. Thanks for letting me know bro
Thanks you so much..U bought my almost dead keyboard BACK!😭❤️❤️
I'm so happy for you! My pleasure :)
Crc electro wash will work too 👍🏻great video!
Thanks for the info!
My problem is the pcb itself, the contact metal in the PCB has eroded so its missing a few "arms?" so its not properly touching/making contact with the conductive rubber. Its the part that you added the pencil lead like a two inverted M markings in the PCB. Do you guys know how to fix that?
At first attempt, we fixed the 3 dead keys and then when I press the other keys, they did not work :'( but we still fixing it, hopefully it'll be fixed soon. God bless!💗
I hope you succeed. I would love to hear your update! 🎉
Great video man!! What was the background music you used?
I forgot. Haha but it's probably a free copyright music that I got from youtube
Sooo happy to find this vid my main key 'e' is dead n i think u get me how painful it is 😅😢thanku turnoffreality
no prob!
What kind of pencil was that? #2?
Yay it really works thank you very much👏👏🤗
Good to know 👍🏻👍🏻
TurnOffReality what does the pencil do
@@hey_u_know_its_anna3022 hey there, thank you for stopping by. It is a pretty good conductor. The harder the pencil lead like 6H - the worse a conductor/higher vresistance it will have.
Love the Bible verse at the end :)
Its good that u put a nice scripture there
It worked perfectly, god bless you ❤
For anyone wondering if this is going to work for you, it worked for me, but my situation was this: the key was working find and then suddenly it started to not play the note all the times you press it, so I needed to do it harder or several times until it started playing again the note, but just for a few seconds.
So if your keyboard have a similar issue, then give it a try
And I know it wasn't a mechanical issue or something like that because I armed and disarmed it a few times but it worked just until I decided to use the pencil
I know I come like 5 years after you uploaded this video, but anyhow, let's get to the matter at hand. I have a RockJam RJ461 which *A lot* of keys do not work, and several had to be taken out because the little black dots that make contact to play the note fell off and they're practically gone. Do you know any place where these like silicon parts for the keyboard can be bought? It would be a huge help, as I really want to fix this issue.
How about my 1 F key playing or holding automatically without doing anything?
God bless! gonna give it a shot!
God bless you too!
Thank youuu!!
The A# key is not working my keyboard is yamaha psr e373 its been a year since we bought it, i want to open it but im scared what if i make it worse or broke it. We are still looking for keyboard repair shops but here in Pangasinan its hard to find when we bring it to the shop where we buy the piano they told us that they will bring it to manila to fix it and it will take a month. What can i do to fix this? can i really fix this by myself?
I agree with that,a pencil rod or leftover is ideal for electric insulation👍thank you bro
You're welcome bro 👍🏻
It worked and my keys are working.....tq
Happy to hear that bro 👍🏻
Great silent repair but full visual indeed !
Thank you for your feedback!!!
I dont know why my casio sa 45 have not working the kick and cymbal pad and the buttons 0 and 5. It is suèr clean and I make that and I dont know if i made it bad
I have 2 keys that play the same note, any ways to fix?
I have the same kind of keyboard, wonder if the green and the black part is replaceable? (under the white rubber/silicone thing) Mine got broken under one key. Or just get a new electronic keyboard?
I guess you mean the PCB board. Try searching it on the internet if they sell the part or just ask a technician. If you have no problem on buying a new keyboard, JUST GET IT!
@@turnoffreality5333 Thanks 😊
So everytime that is a dead key it just to open the keyboard and clean it?
What kind of pencil is that please? Is it just a regular old #2 pencil?
Yes- I was wondering that too. Is it just a regular pencil?
So just any pencil will work?? Or do you need a specific kind? Is this a permanent fix, or do you have to redo it every so often? Thank you!
I assume the graphite in the pencil just helps it make better electrical contact. If that is the case, a more permanent solution would be to clean the contact areas with isopropyl alcohol.
You might wanna test how the material reacts to the alcohol at an unimportant spot but in general it is safe to use which is why it is frequently used for cleaning/repairing electronics.
Do not use acetone! It can dissolve certain plastics that are common in electronics.
Very good solution,
Thank you for your feedback!!!
You save me form my mom and dad
Thanks a lot
No prob!
While transporting a Yamaha DGX-650 on the back of my car , it fell between the seats and one white key got damaged ,it sticks out half of inch , it still acts like the other ones but there is no sound. Any info will be apreciated.
Guysss, help this guy out!!
I draw with pencil and clean very well but my piano is not working
So I'm having a problem where all of the D's are broken on my keyboard, would this fix that?
Yep
mine to, i have all the C's from lowest to highest. First, it was only 3 adjacent keys didn't work, after i assembled back, thats when the C's problem begins. 🙁
Tq brooo
What's that gray thing that you used your pencil for.. Mine isn't connected now and There's no way to fix it without replacing the gray thingy
I'm sorry, do mean the pencil lead?
did you end up just doing the key that was bad, or did you go ahead and deep clean and do all the keys?
Just the broken keys hehe
if the keys are all off what is the cause?
Quick question, does this work with keyboards that has two sensors?
It depends on the circuitry.
Is there any solution ? My only eflat key working but it sometimes sounds waay loud than the other keys. Its so random sometimes working fine but sometimes sounds so loud and it scares me. 😨
You can try watching other reference on youtube 😊
What if it has popped upwards?
My piano key when I press done on it it won’t make a sound dose anyone know how I can fix?
If the keyboard was fall and broke the circuit board,it is still can be fix like this?
Probably won't bc the circuit board is broken.
it didn't works with me help me plz my keyboard is
RINGWAY ck62+
Nice repair job.. Too bad it was not my model :(
Mine got erased what should i do
wow, You're a music keyboard tech dude. I never broke my piano keys. Im hiring music techs (Such as Guitar tech repair man, Drum tech repair man and piano tech repair man) for my gig or concerts after hiring musicians for making my own band.
Thanks bro 🙏
Wow cool. I hope I can hire myself music techs in the future. In the meantime, I still have so much to learn and still improving. Thank you for spending your time watching my video. It means a lot 👍🏻
@@turnoffreality5333 no probs. At least the Piano has wire sockets and sustain pedals than without pedal.
@turnoffreality5333 what kind of pencil should i use? Real lead? Graphite?
I also have the same problem one side works but the keys on the other side doesnt work!!!
If I’m wrong let me know please I think Yamaha keyboard keys are very fragile.
I have a keyboard and no sound comes out no matter what. What shall I do
You're a lifesaver I've been suffering this at first with my C# and then C# miracly fixed by itself and now B flat is broken but I'm gonna do this
Hope to hear an update soon 🎉
wtf the music in this sounds rlly cool at 1.5 speed lol
What gears do you need?
You just need a pencil and a screwdriver 👍🏻
Tq u got my piano
Thank you for your feedback!!!
Amen
Amen!
this is literally what a technician would do if you brought your keyboard to them but instead it's on a tutorial which means same process but less money
Im 12 years old is it safe to do it or will i mess something up?
Is it work for all keyboards model?
Some keyboards have different circuitry. No, it does not work for all.
Wait... Why does drawing on it with a pencil work 😂??? Amazing!!
It's just a normal pencil. I used 3B pencil. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
Does this work on any piano?
Unfortunately, no
Will this work if a key doesn’t sound at all?
Anoxmous X try it maybe it will
I love you
amen
Sensie.. mine's not workingg. What should i do?
Do you mean the key?
Was that just a normal pencil you used or some tool?
Yes. It's just a normal pencil. I used 3B pencil. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
@@turnoffreality5333 can i use 4b graphite pencil? Or 4b Charcoal pencil?
@@enielobejo6043 graphite because it can conduct electricity 👍🏻
@Martin Dable I wouldn't recommend you to solder. It might not work properly 😅
How can I remove keys inside an EZ-30
It should be the same bro or you can try search it on youtube to be more specific. Btw thanks for dropping by.
Thank you so much! Finally I fixed my old keyboard! 😭
So happy for you! My pleasure, no prob :)
Cool! It worked for me... But didn't understand how could a pencil ✏️ work?
It's just a normal pencil. I used 3B pencil. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
kidding me! i am def going to try this as my old portable yamaha has been sitting for years for this reason. i will come back and update either way when i try it. Thank you so very much.
didnitnwork?
@@notyetskeletal4809 didnt get to try it...yet
so uhhhh, me and my friends were hitting my keyboard and now it randomly turns off when I hit a key or few so can u tell me how to fix it? Thank u if u can. My mom is going to kill me 😄.oh also I took out the batteries and uhh yeah now it won't turn on👍
Ey bro i don't know what to do i accidentally pour a water on my cousin's piano and the inside idk wet or something can you plss help me with this🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Hi, sorry for the late reply. It should be okay. Just open the components of the keyboard (where you accidentally pour the water) and let it dry. Please let me know if it still doesn't work.
Men my yamaha keyboard was pissed by my cat, the keys are not working properly
Can you make a video on how to fix the sound my electric keyboard sounds horrible I want it to sound like magic or something lol please
It is more blessed to give than to receive.-Jesus Christ
What if the rubber strip is damaged..? Where can I get it..?
You can try buying it online 😊
@@turnoffreality5333 can you please help me out on how to get it through online...?
Mine are broken too but I can’t find them online :(
bro i literally just tapped it multiple times and now it works-
no need to open the wHoLe thing-
Haha good for you. I opened the whole thing just for the sake of teaching
How do you tapped?
specific pencil?
I used 3B pencil. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
Is that a regular pencil? 2B?
Yes. It's just a normal pencil. I used 3B pencil. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
Can i use apsara pencil
It depends on the pencil's grade. The rod of the pencil can be a good electric insulator depends on the pencil's grade
thank you I fix my keyboard na
